iv got the 2.0 hdi 110bhp estate it really pulls well as somone has said on here they just keep giving. it makes a lovely whoosh sound when the turbo starts to work not sure if its normal but i like it lol.
my wife is still getting used to the size of it as its bigger than anything we have had before "thank god for parking sencers!!!!!!" it took me a day or two to get used to it as it takes up all of a parking space :roll:
thanks for the welcomes guys!!!!! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

We did have a 2.0HDi 110 SX estate before our current C5 estate, they do make for good cars. our estate also had a noise when the turbo was in, however im sure it wasn't right, sounded like air escaping but I never tracked it down. Our 110 saloon C5 does not make a sound from its turbo.

They do take a littke getting used to in size but you soon get the hang of it :lol:

I suspect that is your C5 in your sig?

If so, it looks like a facelifted Exclusive which will be the later 2.0HDi 16v with 138bhp! 8-)
